I noticed over the last few years that I was able to spend less and less time on my computer. I figured the dry eyes and irritation I was experiencing was just from getting older too many years spent on a computer, but a friend of mine told me to try Acuvue Oasys contact lenses. The Acuvue Oasys lenses - when used with Clear Care - have worked great for me. I’ll tell you more about it in this video.

Here’s a summary of the video:

  • I noticed over the last several years that I wasn’t able to spend as much time on the computer as I used to. My eyes were getting dry and irritated.
  • A friend introduced me to Acuvue Oasys contact lenses. I noticed a difference instantly upon putting them in. I hadn’t realized that before, when I was wearing Acuvue 2 contact lenses, that I could actually feel the lenses in my eyes.
  • My doctor also unstructed me to use Clear Care solution to take care of my contact lenses. This is an acidic soluiton that reacts to a platinum disc inside of a case. You leave your lenses in it overnight, and it cleans your lenses, while converting the solution to saline.
  • If you’re looking for contact lenses for dry eyes, I highly recommend the Acuvue Oasys and Clear Care combination!

I just read an article with a pretty intriguing proposal in it. If I understand it correctly, Luke Redpath proposes that the next CSS specification include an ability to specify that an element contain other elements by default. This would be an ideal way to create visual effects that would otherwise require extraneous DIV tags. For example, for the technique, Onion Skinned Drop Shadows, the code would look something like this:

.wrap1, .wrap2, .wrap3 {
display:inline-table;
/* \*/display:block;/**/
}
.wrap3 {
padding:0 4px 4px 0;
background:url(corner_tr.gif) right
top no-repeat;
}
/* CSS rules from the future */
.wrap1 {
contain: .wrap2
float:left;
background:url(shadow.gif) right
bottom no-repeat;
}
.wrap2 {
contain: .wrap3
background:url(corner_bl.gif) left
bottom no-repeat;
}
img .shadow {
contain: .wrap1
}
/* end CSS rules from the future */

Now, instead of your markup looking like this:

<div class="wrap1">
<div class="wrap2">
<div class="wrap3">
<img
src="object.gif"
alt="The object casting a shadow"
/>
</div>
</div>
</div>

It would look like this:

<img class="shadow"
src="object.gif"
alt="The object casting a shadow"
/>

I think this would be a big step toward separating presentation from content.
